When you do as many interviews as we do, a lot of great stuff ends up on the cutting room floor (more specifically, sitting on a hard drive). There's just not enough time to squeeze it all into the talk show. That's why you should subscribe to The Brown Sessions podcast. This feed is about the interview, the whole interview, and nothing but the interview.

Subscribe and get down with Brown. It's like how much more Brown could these interviews be? And the answer is none…none more Brown.

The Truth Comes Out - Nancy Heche

Erik Guzman July 19th, 2007

From the book…

"This is the beginning of a beautiful love story, Nancy wrote in her diary after meeting Don Heche, the man she was to marry. Five children and 25 years of marriage later, it seemed as if they were the perfect family. Then Don was diagnosed with AIDS-the shocking discovery of his homosexual secret.

This was only the beginning of loss and heartache. Shortly after Don's death, their 18-year-old son, Nathan, died in a car crash and Nancy fell into years of personal darkness. Eventually, as she was drawn into a long journey of growth and healing, her youngest daughter, Anne, began a very public lesbian love affair.

Despite Nancy's life circumstances, she held on to what she knew of God's promises from Scripture and is discovering how to look at people and the world with God's perspective through eyes full of love and blessing. Her inspiring story of faith and courage will offer hope to anyone who has ever been on the brink of despair, or wondered how to respond with love to someone in a same-sex relationship."

One Response to “The Truth Comes Out - Nancy Heche”

Matt Anthony July 22nd, 2007

Mrs. Heche had a lot of good things to say. It's too bad she didn't get much of a chance to say them. The interviewers have a lot to learn about the technique of interviewing. They seemed more interested in making sure she knew they weren't anti-gay (like the rest of the evil conservative, right wing church. Great, so you're anti-anti-gay. Not much better.) I really would have liked to have heard more of what she had to say about her life in all these terrible circumstances. She seemed to have a grasp of Scripture and how she applied it. Please, please, please…let your guests talk!!
